#058 Growlithe used Fire Fang and Flare Blitz!

DragonchildX aka Aurora from Hungary draws a lot types of different art, ranging from landscapes to human characters, fan art and now also two of the 151 classic Pokémon with Raticate being the first one, drawn in May already and Dewgong (with the Aurora Beam…!) in August. Her take on Growlithe was one of the last illustrations for the Gen I Project and done in November.

I look forward to see more of this talented artist when we start our next art collaborations in 2017!

“The user bites with flame-cloaked fangs. It may also make the foe flinch or sustain a burn”

Fire Fang is one of the Fire-Type attacks that were introduced in the Gen IV Pokemon games and deals not only a juice damage already but also has a 10% chance of burning the enemy. Beside that it has the same 10% chance of causing the target enemy to flinch.

Flare Blitz is a powerful Fire-Type attack introduced in Generation IV. It is sort of a double-edged sword with equal amounts of benefits and risk.

Among the benefits are the chances of both burning the target and thawing out of Frozen status. But in exchange the user will be damaged by the recoil of the move equal to one third of the damage the target receives.

“A Pokémon with a friendly nature. However, it will bark fiercely at anything invading its territory. “

Furry, friendly and faithful; Growlithe is a Fire-Type canine Pokemon. It will evolve into Arcanine when exposed to a Fire Stone.

Like most real dogs, Growlithe is a domesticated type Pokemon that is very loyal to its trainer/master. Like Pikachus, some are merely kept as pets. Yet despite being loving towards its owner, Growlithe will act ferocious once its territory is invaded or its master is threatened. Its sense of smell is also extraordinary; to which it commits many certain scents to memory.
